Read between the lines
(music by parsec. and Gero Hoepner / lyrics by C. Bender)

Don´t believe what´s beeing told for years
analyze the words that reach your ears
to prevent from lies you have to fear
that all lie is truth - and all truth is lie

to trust is a kind of giving up
of losing yourself drop for drop
in a world that´s based onto belief
the truth is all that has to leave

Ref.: Read between the lines
         try to look behind the eyes
         make disbelief your religion
         let doubts become your prayers

Mistrust is the highest order
that´s the price we have to pay
where was the point, what have we done
why are we all so led astray

impossible to live with closed eyes
always wait for being hit
always have to watch your back
hear lies coming over their lips

repeat Ref.:

Depresses me to say these words
although I know it is the truth
I know it is a truth that hurts
so listen when I say to you

Don´t believe what´s being told for years
analyze the words that reach your ears
to prevent from lies you have to fear
that all lie is truth - and all truth is lie


Storm of Fate
(music by parsec. / lyrics by C. Bender)

Can´t be fortold - always present
devastating as an earthquake
the mind is stunned the comes the faint
moveless lying on the ground

no howling winds no thunderstorms
no eclipse of the moon or even the sun
strokes of faint come without announcement
to divide what was into before and after
like a lightning from the summersky
that´s dressed in blue without a cloud
with such an immense striking power
to cut the eldest trees in two

The storm of fate, it blows so strong
to live in hope to me seems wrong
the storm of fate, it comes with rain
brings us grief, torture and pain

No howling winds no thunderstorms
no eclipse of the moon or even the sun
changes of all that ever was
time puts future into present present into past
the wheel of time never to be stopped
and sometimes turning much too fast
we have to bear our life, bear our fate
but I am sure that nothing ever lasts


Steamship
(music by parsec. / lyrics by C. Bender)

Never to be destroyed by speech
I can´t be erased by deeds
steaming on through the ocean of time
like a steamship through heavy weather

like steel so hard the outer shell
for that the inner self is safe
been hit and often near at sinking
wounded I survived every attack

Ref.: Steamship - displace disturbances in front
         Steamship - tear to pieces all below

Growing fear in the enemy´s eye
I´ve seen it million times
some seperate battles I have lost
but there´s just victory in the end

like steel so hard the outer shell
for that the inner self is safe
been hit and often near at sinking
wounded I survived every attack

repeat Ref.:

like a steamship through heavy weather
like a steamship through heavy weather


Amok
(music by parsec. / lyrics by C. Bender)

Like ants I can see them from my point of view
their fate hangs on a threat I´m holding in my hands
this cold, black piece of metal built to kill the ones I hate
in my hands I hold the power over the rest of their lives

Amok 3x

I´m high above my sight is great I can see them all
now´s the time to let my vengeance meet their innocence
acting for the ones who treated me so maliscious
I will end their breathing they will never hurt again

They will never hurt again 4x

Amok 2x

They´ll have no time to realize what is happening
I´ll be so fast, they won´t see the movie of their lives
and in the end I will kill the leader of their lie
when they are gone I will follow I will end my life


Awakening (Back from dreams)
(music by parsec. / lyrics by C. Bender)

It was the road I had to take without compromise
into an dead end street almost blind
made me an outcast, no sign to recognize
no turning back, it was the fault I had to make

Ref.: Back from landscapes so unreal
Back from dreams not to reveal

really stroke hard, this pain  was the best for me
don´t feel no repentacne don´t want to turn back time
the lesson I have learnt will take me far away
hard awakening but now beeing awake

repeat Ref.:

It was the road I had to take without compromise
into an dead end street almost blind
made me an outcast, no sign to recognize
no turning back, lost myself in the void of black

back from landscapes back from dreams
back from landscapes back from dreams
